d)
Green revolution can pose a threat to biodiversity in the long run in food supply and food security
Answer:

Q 75. CSAT 2016
Which among the following is the most logical assumption that can be made from the above passage ?
a)
About 10,000 years ago, the domestication of animals took place in some parts of the world
b)
A permanent change in the food habits of a community can bring about a genetic change in its members
c)
Lactose tolerant people only are capable of getting simple sugars in their bodies
d)
People who are not lactose tolerant cannot digest any dairy product
Answer:
b
- The passage speaks about the historical background of different societies in terms of their dependence on cattle and milk, and consequent genetic changes.
- Options (c) and (d) are very limited, hence ruled out. Option (a) is too direct, and not an assumption.
- Option (b) is the best answer.
Q 77. CSAT 2016
Which among the following is the most logical corollary to the above passage?
a)
Carbon dioxide is essential for the survival of microorganisms and plants
b)
Humans are solely responsible for the release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere
c)
Microorganisms and soil carbon are mainly responsible for the increased plant growth
d)
Increasing green cover could trigger the release of carbon trapped in soil
Answer:
d
- Option (b) is clearly wrong because of “solely responsible”. Various natural processes like volcanoes do so too.
- Option (c) is overlooking the interdependence of these factors.
- Option (a) is not wrong, but is a fact, not a corollary (a proposition that follows from one already proved).
- Option (d) is the best corollary. As green cover grows, more carbon trapped in soil will be released. Hence option (d) is correct.
